Gina Neff ’89, a professor at the University of Oxford who studies work and technology, was recently featured on the Untangling the Web podcast discussing the pandemic, work, and technology.
“We see a moment that we’re in right now of being somewhat trapped, I think, between the necessity of contributing to a public good, but also needing to understand where we fit personally in these. So I’ve spoken out quite publicly about back-to-work solutions that don’t protect workers’ privacy, right? What we know about organizations and workplaces, is that we absolutely have an imbalance of power between employees who need work and employers who might have other interests or demands in the workplace.”
